Unpacking The Feminine Genius I featuring Chloe Langr

May is the month of Mary, and Family Rosary will be reflecting on some of the last words Jesus spoke as He hung on the cross: “Behold your Mother”. Jesus gave his mother, Mary to all of us in that moment. In his “Letter To Women” St. John Paul II spoke of Mary’s motherhood and life as the prime example of the “feminine genius”.


In this episode, Alex Dee sits down with Chloe Langr, host of the incredible podcast "Letters To Women".  Chloe shares her passion for embracing the feminine genius in the simpleness of everyday life and she and Alex share their thoughts on the current cultural confusion surrounding femininity that is hurting both women and men.

Unpacking the Feminine Genius II featuring Dr. Deborah Savage

How do we understand the feminine without also understanding the masculine?

Here's a hint...we really can't. Check out this a conversation Alex Dee shares with Dr. Deborah Savage. They share an important conversation on what the feminine genius is and how it extends from scripture. She also explains that in order to understand femininity we must also understand masculinity.  Dr. Savage is a professor of Theology at Franciscan University at Steubenville. She consistently speaks, writes, and studies issues that pertain to masculinity and femininity and is a scholar of St. John Paul II’s surrounding work. Her recent work has focused on the development of a robust theology on the nature of man and woman, both their identities and complementarity. You can see her appear on Faith and ReasonCatholic AnswersFirst Things, as well as many other leading outlets and publications.
